FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for high-arched runners?
The Questar 3 is designed for neutral runners. If you have extreme pronation issues, you may want to consult with a podiatrist regarding whether a neutral shoe provides enough support for your specific gait.
Can I put these shoes in the washing machine?
It is not recommended to machine wash these trainers as the heat and agitation can damage the adhesive and cushioning materials. Hand cleaning is the safest method.
What is the primary difference between Bounce and Cloudfoam?
Bounce is engineered for energy return and flexibility during active movement, while Cloudfoam is focused on providing a soft, comfortable feel immediately upon stepping into the shoe.
Are these good for heavy weightlifting?
While the low profile is helpful, these are running-specific shoes. For heavy lifting, a flatter, firmer sole is usually preferred to provide a stable base.
Does the sizing run true?
The Questar 3 generally features a regular fit. It is recommended to stick to your standard UK athletic shoe size, but remember to account for a small amount of space in the toe box for comfort while running.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feeling too tight around the midfoot
Adjust the lace tension by loosening the eyelets at the midfoot and ensure the tongue is centered properly.
Accumulation of dust on mesh upper
Use a soft, dry microfiber cloth or a dedicated shoe brush to gently wipe the mesh sections without damaging the fibers.
Slippage on wet surfaces
Check the rubber outsole for excessive wear; if the textured grip tread is worn smooth, the shoe may lose its effectiveness on slick surfaces.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Questar 3 shoes last, it is essential to follow a consistent maintenance routine. Since these shoes feature a mesh upper, avoid using harsh brushes which could snag the fabric. For cleaning, remove surface dirt with a soft, dry brush and use a damp cloth with mild soap for localized stains. Allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources to prevent material warping. Always ensure the lace-up closure is snug to maintain the intended support structure provided by the padded collar, and replace the insoles if you notice the Cloudfoam cushioning losing its rebound over time.
